Eastern Railroad Discussion > A block from home-67Z with NS 1072 leading!!

Thanks to a big heads up from Pattenburg, I was able to plan the afternoon and catch one of the last NS 67Z's with a special treat of the Illinois Terminal heritage unit leading.

My daughter and I walked a block to the grass just west of the Main Street crossing in Topton, PA to catch it. We were very fortunate to also catch a 64K and the 20V just before and after the 67Z.

From what I understand NS has lost the contract to haul crude to Linden and CSX is taking over, I believe effective yesterday. There should be one more 67Z to come west in the next day or two.

Enjoy!

20V was pretty long, there were a good amount of empty well cars today.

My wife's favorite heritage unit....

Dan - nice video!

When I was sitting in Bethlehem waiting for 67Z, Allentown hump told somebody that 20V will be showing up later with 4800 feet of empty doublestacks.
